Groundbreaking Thursday for Fifth and Race development

A groundbreaking ceremony was held Thursday morning for a new development at Fifth and Race streets in downtown Cincinnati.

The two-acre site on the northwest corner is a City of Cincinnati-owned parking lot that has long been considered prime real estate for redevelopment.

The proposed project includes an approximate 1,000-space parking garage, approximately 40,000 SF of retail/commercial space, an approximate 250,000 square foot headquarters building for dunnhumbyUSA, and a potential 200-unit residential building.

dunnhumbyUSA would own its own headquarters building, and the potential residential developer would own, lease and manage the rental units.

Here in the city that's home to "University-6," as the University of Louisville is identified in a federal criminal complaint filed by the Acting U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, the feeling of devastation is exceeded only by anger and disbelief.
